Obtaining an object reference from a string

I am reading the name of an object in the form of a string inside an applet.

I want to obtain a reference to this object. How do I do that? I looked into
Reflection and it seems like I would be creating another object of the same
class. But that's not what I want. Please give advice. Thanks
